ABOUT US

Sharing our professional knowledge

OUR APPROACH

At the heart of our coaching philosophy is a simple belief: leadership growth flourishes in a space that is supportive, challenging, confidential - and above all, genuinely helpful.

We are independent and bring fresh perspectives without internal agendas.

 

We offer challenge and support in a confidential space, encouraging you to explore ideas, decisions, hopes and fears without constraints.

WHO WE ARE
Nick Perry - Elite Performance

I am Nick Perry, founder of Elite Performance Consultancy.

I believe leaders find that dedicated time, an experienced ear, and a confidential space to explore options and ideas can be invaluable.  If the process itself is fulfilling and produces solutions, this translates into greater motivation and enjoyment in your role.

Drawing on over 30 years experience as a solicitor, a leader in my field, responsible for winning and managing relationships with my firm's key clients and including 14 years as Managing Partner of the London office of Bird & Bird LLP - an international law firm with offices across Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Middle East - during a time of record growth and change, I understand the real pressures and opportunities leadership brings.

 

Having benefited from executive coaching myself, I know the value of working with someone independent - someone who brings fresh perspectives, real-world experience and thoughtful discussion without internal agendas.

Today, having graduated with Distinction the Meyler Campbell Mastered Executive Coaching programme, I bring that same blend of professional coaching expertise and hands-on leadership experience to my clients.
